***Live Updates*** Trump Launches 2020 Re-Election Campaign

President Donald Trump will launch his 2020 re-election campaign on Tuesday evening in Orlando, Florida. Crowds have been waiting for 40 hours to get into the 25,000 capacity Amway Center, and movie screens will be outside for the overflow crowd.

The Trump campaign is also using the 2020 launch event to promote watch parties across the nation and register voters to organize Trump’s grassroots supporters.

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan also launched his re-election campaign in an Orange County (Mile Square Park in Southern California) and went on to win 49 states in trouncing Democrat Walter Mondale. Trump will have a much tougher path back the White House—much of it because of self-inflicted wounds and advisers who are not versed in the America-first agenda that got Trump elected in 2016—and tonight’s rally will be a chance for Trump to try to get his swagger back and energize his supporters.

9:21 PM: Trump rips Sanders for not doing too well lately and criticizes Democrats running for president for embracing his Medicare for All plan.

Trump says: ā€œAmerica will never be a socialist country. Ever. Republicans do not believe in socialism. We believe in freedom.ā€

9:15 PM: Ā Trump says the Democrats’ embrace of open borders and illegal immigration is ā€œmorally reprehensible and it’s the greatest betrayl of the American middle class and, frankly, American life our country has as a whole…nobody has seen anything like it.ā€

He says illegal immigration cuts off the path of the most vulnerable Americans and schoolchildren are being threatened by illegal MS-13 gangsters. He says mass illegal migration reduces living standards and strains public resources. Trump says if Democrats had to send their children to those overcrowded schools, they would not ā€œtolerate it for one minute.ā€ He says Democrats can get together with Republicans to solve the problem quickly in one meeting. He now blasts Democrats in California for giving health care to illegals instead of helping homeless citizens. He says Democrats support sanctuary cities and thanks Gov. DeSantis for ending the ā€œhorrible disasterā€ in Florida.

9:10 PM: Trump says tariffs are working and America has added 16,000 manufacturing jobs a month since he took office while the country was losing thousands of manufacturing job a month before that. Referring to Obama’s ā€œmagic wandā€ comments, Trump says he’ll tell ā€œSleepy Joeā€ Biden that he found the ā€œmagic wandā€ to bring back manufacturing jobs. He now brags about getting ā€œright to tryā€ legislation passed.

9:00 PM: Trump now introduces Sarah Huckabee Sanders and predicts she will run for governor. She says she has been in the front row of history to see him make ā€œdrastic changesā€ to make America great. She says ā€œhe’s fighting for all of the people in this roomā€ and ā€œwill have an incredible six more years to make our country stronger than it has ever been.ā€

Trump says the Democrats are becoming ā€œmore radical,ā€ dangerous and more unhinged than at any point in history.

8:57 PM: Trump claims he has never forgotten who sent him to the White House. Says he only thinks about how the American people can ā€œwin, win, win todayā€ when he sits as his desk. He says there have been ā€œfew presidents that have been able to do what we have been able to do for you. It is a great, great feeling. I love it.ā€ He says he is ā€œbreaking the most sacred rule in Washington politicsā€ā€“ā€œkeeping our promises to the American people.ā€ He says his only special interest is the voters.

8:38 PM: Trump rips Democrats for giving a ā€œfree passā€ to Hillary Clinton while the crowd chants ā€œlock her up.ā€ Trump says if he deleted even a ā€œlove noteā€ to Melania, he would get the electric chair. He asks voters to show up to ā€œshut down this rigged system.ā€ He predicts another ā€œearthquakeā€ Ā to ā€œfinish the jobā€ as the crowd chants ā€œfour more years.ā€

8:35 PM: Trump says Democrats don’t want the wall because he is president and ask the crowd to imagine what the caravans would look like had some barriers not been in place.

He says they would ā€œshut down your free speech,ā€ ā€œuse the power of the law to punish their opponents,ā€ which Trump says they are trying to do. He says they will ā€œstrip Americans of their Constitutional rightsā€ while flooding the country with illegals with hopes that they will expand their political base. Crowd chants: ā€œBuild The Wall.ā€
